Nothing except something
Will make me go there:
Where no heart deepens
To endless promises,
Cloud crow all day
With no drop of rain,
Desires seem to fail
And ceaselessly time falters,
Whether better or worse
Hearts are turned with discord,
Bankers of unrealistic treasures,
By sugar-coated tongues,
Of 'I love you' traitors.
It would be for good,
If hearts were good all through,
No more can we see through,
Whether for bad or good.
Because the heart's a crook
Love and life were paired,
The beauty so fair,
Now the fair is furious,
We merely live a life,
Completely void of spice,
Except by God of grace,
What could be so array,
Rather makes men to stray
Will it ever be futile?
Or men decline desires?
If love no more's a grail,
Full joy life would embrace,
And both would die unstrained,
The center of attraction.
Any than this I reckon,
Nothing except something,
Will e'er make me go there

A good depiction of toxic blend of hope and anxiety, caused by sugar-coated tongues that pay lip service to love, as crooked hearts renege from their divinely ordained duty which is to love. A well articulated piece of poetry, insightfully penned in poetic diction with conviction. Thanks for sharing Godstime. Please read my poem MANDELA - THE IMMORTAL ICON.
